Sticky discharge from the sweet smell of burn wounds

After the burn, the skin is destroyed as a natural shield for the body to resist the invasion of microorganisms, and the necrotic skin tissue is a good "medium" for the growth and reproduction of microorganisms. Therefore, burn wounds are extremely susceptible to infection. In recent years, as the level of burn shock treatment has increased, shock mortality has decreased significantly. Burn infections have become the leading cause of death from severe burns. The prevention and treatment of burn infection is the key to burn treatment. The sticky secretion of the burn wound with a sweet smell is a Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection.
